Abstract: The Technical Assistance Board, composed of a central secretariat and a network of Resident Representatives' field offices, plays a significant part in the planning, co-ordinat ing, and servicing of the United Nations Expanded Program of Technical Assistance. The success of the Program is evi denced by the almost unanimous support given it by both the receiving and contributing countries. The need and desire of improving the Program's impact upon the economic and social development of the world, requires constant evaluation studies and administrative adjustments to meet the realistic conditions determined from operation experience. The Resident Repre sentative, functioning at the country level, witnesses the tech nical assistance operation from the closest point and, therefore, holds a key position in guiding the administration of the Pro gram.
